How about delegate some of the control to other people ? There's something
wrong if it has to be you that sorts it out eveyr time - especially as you
effectively manage as many platforms as everyone else put together right
now.

I believe I pointed at the patch required to fix the problem via this
URL:

http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=5010/1

A subset of that patch had also already been discussed between Philipp,
akpm and myself. The URL also shows when it was applied (though not to
a branch of my tree I could've pushed into mainline at that stage.)

The fix was already known... The fix had been pointed out by me during
the various mails I got about the breakage... I'd effectively already
approved the fix by applying it... And I had said I wouldn't be able to
sort it until Thursday.

Yes, maybe I should've said to Andrew "please grab this patch off this
URL and ensure it gets to Linus ASAP." Hind sight is always a wonderful
thing.
